Prayer for Today, Friday, January 7

O Lord of all Life,



We come before you with thankful hearts. You have blessed us in so many ways. May Your blessings flow through us, O Lord, as we share them with other. Be with those who are sick, we pray. Please be with those who are grieving. Touch the hearts of the lonely and depressed. May we be Your agents of healing, caring and embracing this day. In Jesus name we pray, AMEN.

Virginia "Ginny" Schultz's funeral is today at 4:00 p.m. at New Hope United Methodist Church. Please pray for her family.



Sharon Garrett asked that we continue to pray for Kim Keithly Jones who is continuing in her fight with brain cancer.



The scripture reading for today is Genesis 29:15-28. We are in Week Six of the liturgical year.



The "catch up" scriptures from Week Two are: Genesis 1:1 through 3:24, 4:1-16, 6:5-22, and 7:1-12.



This daily discipline over a three year period includes the reading of the entire New Testament. Each week alternates between New Testament and Old Testament. The Old Testament readings will introduce the reader to most of the major themes and personalities found there.



Grace and peace,



John McLemore
